Hi @veitk,

Follow the instructions here: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/6233/modules-not-always-loading/

Hi @NathanWilcox,

If you followed the manual install, you should see the shell script (mm.sh) when you run ls -la ~. Run pm2 list to see what processes are registered in pm2. You can then pm2 stop mm && pm2 delete mm && pm2 save, and finally rm ~/mm.sh.

mm should then be gone for good, and only MagicMirror will remain. You can confirm what remains by running pm2 list again.

@Mykle1 The b/g/n adapter is a further $7, and will also give you an antenna for better connectivity. The more robust (and likely excessive) b/g/n/ac dual-antenna is $22.

Has anyone tried running MM on an Intel Compute Stick? I’m not normally a fan, but it seems it would suit the form factor and be easily placed behind a mirror, and has more fulsome specs to accommodate advanced modules, media streaming, etc.

@robmcc83 Start with the README.md (link) and then follow the “How to connect a button” link for a hardware walkthrough. Once you’ve carefully followed the walkthrough, configuration should be straightforward.

Hi @kiki99:

You can send the SCREEN_WAKEUP notification to MMM-PIR-Sensor via MMM-Remote-Control (some details how to structure the GET request here): https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/6106/use-mmm-buttons-to-hide-show-modules).

If you can get the Alexa wakeword to send the notification, it should wake the monitor as though you triggered the PIR.

Anyone having config.js issues can first copy/paste the module config (or whole thing) into JSHint (removing any API secrets or passwords). It will immediately draw attention to any syntax issues.

Hi @Gailby – check out @Beh’s post. It’s a very very detailed walkthrough. That method syncs/downloads your iCloud calendar locally and then displays it with the Calendar module (although you could use any module that supports iCal).

Thanks, @Mykle1. I’m definitely familiar with that list, but none of the modules support shared and remote notes, at least that I can tell.

If it was only me adding the notes, it’d be easy, but I also want my family to leave notes for me. Afaik, nobody else can modify or share Gmail notes.

I also want anyone to be able to edit it while away from home, so I need to use an external service (a la Gdocs, DropBox). I think a Telegram bot would be good, except nobody in the family uses Telegram either. Maybe I’ll need to write a Twitter DM bot. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Finally, because this extends into online services beyond the mirror, I asked the forum because you’re a bunch of smart people!

If anyone is interested, as a consequence of this post (and a +1 I saw somewhere…), I’ve created a PR adding this functionality to the core newsfeed module. I don’t know that it will be accepted, but hope someone finds it useful.

If anyone on the forums is interested, you can use PR #1137 on MM to check it out.

Thanks!

I know many use their MM as a personal HUD, but mine is intended more as a family coordination point, with a variety of calendars and shared to-do lists, so we all know our shared and separate plans, etc.

I’m looking for a module to display simple messages and reminders from a text file that aren’t suited to a calendar or todos, for the rest of my family. I’d like it sync’ing with an online service like Gdocs or Dropbox, but not have to run a service (e.g. Dropbox client) outside of MM. I’d also like for everyone to have access to the document, so my family can all leave messages as well (even when not at home, and without having to connect remotely – for those less technically inclined).

I can roll my own module or cobble together from parts, but wanted to ask the community if there is anything precooked that would suit these requirements or even serve as a starting point. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks!
